Asiwaju Tinubu: The Demystifier of Entrenched Lazy Rants and Entitlements.
By Hashim Suleiman
With proper lucidity, you could recall how post 2015, everyone hoped that then President Buhari would exemplify his army General tendency and exert tough decisions for the betterment of the nation, alas it was all hope for so many for the entire eight years that had nothing more than the entrenchment of mediocrity that ended up becoming a bane.
As for some of us, we dropped from that hope early enough because there was not critical signaling to any meaningful accomplishments, where there is no criticality, it will be foolhardy to expect magic.
It is not even as if Buhari did not find and said the right things as far as the problems are concerned, statements like ‘if we do not kill corruption, it will kill us,’ ‘who is subsiding who,’ ‘Nigerian youths are lazy’. As factual as they were, there was no equal actions to nip them in the bud for national development.
Everything else that has happened during the Buhari tenure is now history and there for anybody to make a meaning out of but several researched pundits have placed it below average especially in the area of sustainable economic development.
Fast forward to today, Asiwaju Bola Ahmed Tinubu has taken over the helm of affairs and I had penultimate to the elections highlighted clearly about how I felt he and Atiku were the two of the people that had clearly exemplified an understanding of Nigeria’s economics and how to fix it, after all, every economic infrastructure that Nigeria still relies on were built by the duo.

Consequently, the right decisions were made, and tongues have gone wagging albeit hypocritically because a lot of those talking never said a word while all the current laziness and entitlements were built by Buhari.
I was shocked to see the revered General TY Danjuma make a public commentary; he was practically missing in action during Buhari’s eight years.
Recall that Tinubu never contributed a word during Buhari, he allowed him the opportunity to do what he wanted with his tenure, you’d then wonder why all hell wants to be let loose on him now that it is his time to do what he thinks is the best and one that he will eventually take full responsibility for, he said so himself too.
All economic indices are gradually falling in place to show a workable policy, the minister of finance just recently announced that the Nigerian economy had exited any need to print money for activities anymore, meaning our liquidity is improving, oil outputs are hitting the 1.5 million barrels mark, investors are willing to come to Nigeria amidst so many local investments too, exports are improving. What more could a citizen want from and for their nation other than these imminence.
Conclusively, it was safe to say that anybody you see unnecessarily ranting must definitely be a beneficiary of that past opportunism that had held our country down and left people undeservedly pampered to a point of absolute entitlement, otherwise why would any citizen have a problem with an Oando company that has been known to have built capacity for over two decades from managing some part of our petroleum industry for optimum workability?
President Tinubu is encouraged to not be deterred by the antics of these lazy entitled lots, he should keep his eyes on the ball and let people know like he said that there was no free lunch anymore, that the economy was robust enough to accommodate any serious and progressive idea, people should seek for some!
God bless Nigeria
